Get the template name associated with a PowerPoint presentation
I'm using the PowerPoint 2013 UI in my example below but the same question applies to other versions.
If I create a new presentation from a given template and then click File and over on the right column, click the Properties drop down to then click Advanced, I can see the Template name in the Summary tab which appears to the the filename of the POTX file the presentation was created from (minus the extension).
I want to extract this name in VBA but when I use:
...I get different text which equates to the design name and not the template name as returned by this property:
e.g. both lines above return the same text but not the name of the POTX template!
How do I get the name of the original template as displayed in PowerPoint's Properties dialog box?
